A Trip Back in Time

Old Sturbridge Village, October 23, 2011

Old Sturbridge Village is in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, and is an 1830s New England Living History Museum.  It's a fascinating place to visit!

I'm linking up with Good Fences

at the Run "A" Round Ranch Report

This is also my entry for

Gaelyn's Foto Friday Fun 82

with Index #1313.

This week's number is 13, but I cheated a little bit.  When I searched for Image 13, this photo that was taken on October 23, three years ago today, popped up.  It was a good match for Good Fences too, and the date made it the perfect choice.

Dall Sheep at Denali

I'm continuing with more photos from our drive into Denali National Park on Monday.  Among the wildlife to look for in Denali are Dall Sheep, and there are more than 2,000 in the Park.  We saw several groups, but most were just tiny specks too far away to photograph.  The group below was the closest, although you can see from the first photo that they weren't really very close.

However, you take what you can get.  This was a group of three ewes with a lamb.  The rams live in bands which seldom associate with the ewe groups except during mating season, which is late November and early December.

I've cropped the photo below, and although it's a bit fuzzy, it shows the ewe's horns, quite a bit smaller than the ram's.

I am linking these up with Eileen's Saturday's Critters.

The following photo is looking over the buildings around the Visitor's Center at the Park with the Nenana River in the foreground.  It was taken from one of the hotels that sits on a bluff overlooking the Park.  I am linking with Gaelyn's Foto Friday Fun 77 with Index No. 2458.
